  • When my husband retired, he announced he was never living anywhere he couldn't wear his shorts. Since we live in Central Illinois, that necessitated some lifestyle changes! First a sailboat in the Caribbean and now a travel trailer - currently headed west in Southern New Mexico... Guess his shorts lifestyle makes us snowbirds? :)
